Nuclear Arms Reduction Treaty - Obama and his new found Russian friend (it ain't Putin) sign treaty that adds nothing to our safety.

Obama, King of Smoke and Mirror diplomacy, announces a thoroughly meaningless nuclear reductions treaty.

From the NY Times:
At 8:00 am pst, Obama announced the "most significant nuclear treaty in two decades. The numbers are seeing give us a reduction of nuclear warheads by 25% and delivery systems by by half, bringing the nuclear US arsenal down to 1500 warhead and related delivery systems to a lesser but unstated number.

Obama alluded to the smoke and mirrors fact that the world is safer because of this "land mark" treaty. read the full story at the above link.

Editor's notes: Really? Look, of we (both the US and Communist Russia) could kill off the population of the world 9 times over, and now, after the treaty, over 6 times over . . . . . . . . . . . . well, pardon me for not feeling safer.

Our question is this: beside the above point, how many of these warheads have aged beyond their time and are a part of this nuclear reduction? In other words, how many of these warheads needed to be retired and now, with the treaty, what was going to happen anyway is credit to a "peace treaty?"

In the end, this treaty has nothing to do with increasing the "safety" factor for the world's population. If you kill me with 9 missiles and now, only 6 missiles, I am no less dead -- jds.
